CSMC?

I will get some pics up for sure, as I am curious to what others believe the value of this is. Maybe I got a deal? I don't know, I signed up here to learn as much as I can and also to reap the benefits of having access to the classifieds here. I have always been a fan of SxS's and lucking into a Parker Reproduction for a fair price started the ball rolling. I still remember talking with the smith that eventually put my Reproduction together about maybe keeping one of the BSS's I had just come into and he told me "Browning BSS's are nice but they're a club compared to a Parker". And in my opinion he is not wrong.

Buy the gun, not the dealer. That applies to cars, rings, guns, houses, you name it. Wake up.

My post was questioning their customer service. I stated in my original post that I decided to keep the gun, that is my choice and I am settled with that. I did my homework including browsing posts here to learn as much as I can, that's why I noticed every detail about the gun that was not original. So why the "Wake up"? I agree 100% with you but you make it sound as if I am in the wrong in the transaction? I may have questioned the originality had there been a photo of the Browning Superposed butt plate but there wasn't.

I am not capable of that. If I do not like or trust the dealer or salesperson of any item for sale I will not buy from them, period.
